A miracle happened again, this light green crystal was integrated into Li Li's hand like the one just now, and the formation process of an energy in his body was exactly the same as the crystal at the moment he absorbed just now, after devouring this crystal, he checked his body repeatedly, and was slightly disappointed, the speed of energy recovery did not speed up or the same as the speed when he devoured the first crystal just now, there was no superposition effect.

Li Li originally thought that the more crystals that were devoured, the faster the recovery speed would be, even if it could not be doubled, it would increase, but he never expected that it would not increase at all, but continuous devouring crystals was not without any benefits, he obviously felt that the energy in his body that had not been absorbed had increased again, which showed that although continuous devouring crystals could not speed up the speed of the body's recovery energy, it could greatly extend the recovery time of the body.

In other words, devouring a light green crystal, his body can completely absorb this energy in an hour, but even if this light green crystal is completely absorbed, it still can't restore his body energy to its peak state, if he swallows three crystals in a row, then he can absorb it for three hours in a row, so that his body energy can return to its peak state.

Li Li once again took out a white crystal of a black armored beast from the space ring, put it in front of his eyes and observed it carefully, after a full minute, nothing happened, he pondered for a moment to withdraw this white crystal, and took out a light purple crystal of a bat beast again and put it in front of his eyes to observe carefully, a strange scene appeared again, the light purple crystal melted into the palm of his hand at a speed visible to the naked eye, this scene was exactly the same as the situation that appeared when the light green crystal appeared after devouring it, nothing happened except for the formation of a warm current again, The speed of recovery has not changed in the slightest.

At this moment, he could finally be sure that the speculation just now was correct, and with his level, the white crystals of the black armor beast were no longer able to stimulate his body to actively activate the devouring energy.

After a moment of silence, Li Li said to himself: "The dark green crystals of the first giant long-tongued reptile contain enough energy to break through the second-order bottleneck, the light green and light purple crystals can only help you accelerate the recovery of energy, and the white crystals may contain too little energy to open and devour, it seems that it is impossible to break through the bottleneck simply by relying on ordinary crystals, the road of quantitative change to qualitative change does not work, only by looking for more advanced crystals can you break through the bottleneck, and ordinary crystals can only be used to restore energy." ”

Li Li sighed, looked at the round moon in the sky, and couldn't help but miss his parents a little, he understood that only by becoming stronger could his parents live better, and now the order of this society has completely collapsed, the weak eat the strong, and the fittest survive.

Maybe it's the night is deep, the love has been done, a lot of past human feelings and sophistication are like a tide to drown Li Li's thinking, he thinks of his childhood hair, thinks of the head teacher in elementary school, and thinks of the first time he fought with someone, thinks of Zhao Ying, who was secretly in high school, after graduating from high school, they go their separate ways and things and never have any intersection, and the final picture is fixed in Li Yunpan, thinking of her naughty standing on the bicycle and singing for a thousand years, thinking of her cheerful distribution of food to children, thinking of her kiss, her voice and appearance are constantly playing back in her mind as if she is alive, Thinking about it, the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile.

When he woke up the next morning, Li Li checked his body slightly, and found that he had recovered, except that the injuries on his body had not healed, and the energy in his body had returned to his peak state, thanks to the crystals that were devoured, otherwise he would not be able to fully recover his peak state in a few days if he had to recover his physical strength and energy through food.

Li Li walked out of the room and came to the training ground of the outpost, there were already many teams gathered on the training ground, and after a glance, he found Luo Xiao and others sitting in a corner of the training ground, as soon as everyone saw Li Li appear, they stopped talking and looked at Li Li curiously, yesterday Li Li fought alone with a group of bat beasts The story has spread among the various teams.

Li Li didn't care about these curious eyes, and walked towards the ninth squad as usual, Luo Xiao and the others immediately stood up and smiled when they saw Li Li coming, it seems that now they have recognized this new captain.

"Team Li, your injury is not healed, rest well, let's go on patrol!" Huang Tianqiang saw Li Li coming, looked at Li Li, who was slightly pale, and said.

"You don't have to go." A smiling voice came from the center of the square, everyone turned their heads, and a middle-aged man of medium height walked towards him with a smile on his face, this person was the captain of the company who spoke in the square yesterday, the middle-aged man came to Li Li, and said with a deeper smile: "Captain Li, I am Wang Deqiang, the person in charge of the outpost, there has been news from Anshi, Captain Li and your team don't need to be on field duty for the time being these days, return to Anshi and wait for the reward!" ”

When everyone in the ninth squad heard this, their faces were overjoyed and they began to look forward to this award.

After Li Li exchanged a few words with Wang Deqiang, he drove a military jeep out of the Chenjiagou outpost and headed for Anshi under the envious eyes of everyone.

The convoy galloped all the way, and after a while, they came to Anshi, entered the barracks, and after getting out of the car, they directly found Sun Yang, who was the head of the patrol team in the area near Chenjiagou and Li Li's direct commander.

This time, Sun Yang saw that Li Li's attitude was more amiable, and after greeting Li Li, he directly took Li Li to receive the lieutenant's uniform and officer ID, and the rest of the soldiers of the Ninth Squad were promoted to one level of reward, among which Luo Xiao and Wang Wei were promoted from the second sergeant major to the first sergeant major, becoming the highest rank among the non-commissioned officers.

After receiving the reward, Li Li and the team members made an appointment to celebrate together in the evening, exchange feelings by the way, and distribute the two purple evolution liquids in exchange for who is the most reasonable first.

Li Li met Gao Jun when he left the gate of the barracks, Gao Jun seemed to know that Li Li was going back to the barracks today and waited here, Gao Jun told Li Li to go to the Crystal Hotel to eat tonight and discuss something by the way, seeing Gao Jun's serious face, plus the help some time ago, Li Li groaned slightly and agreed.

Originally, he planned to organize a team gathering, but he had to push it down, he really couldn't save face, after all, Gao Jun helped him a lot, and in the end, Li Li had to find Luo Xiao and others again to explain the situation, and he couldn't attend the party, so he left the barracks.

Li Li returned home and brought some food and daily necessities to his parents, and the material resources in Anshi were already quite scarce, and many daily necessities were purchased with tickets as they did in the seventies and eighties of the last century, and ordinary people only had ten catties of food stamps a month, three catties of vegetable stamps, half a catty of meat stamps, and half a catty of oil stamps.

Li Li's parents and Gao Ying only had a total of 30 catties of grain a month, and before the disaster broke out, a person could not eat 10 catties of rice a month, that is because of all kinds of snacks in life and all kinds of dishes on the table, if you simply eat rice, a person will have to eat at least 30 catties a month, so it is not enough to eat enough to rely on relief food.

Now Li Li is already a lieutenant, eating and drinking in the army, and he can also receive hundreds of catties of food stamps and dozens of catties of meat stamps a month, but he has only been a lieutenant for a few days, and he has not yet been paid his salary, so he has to use the space ring to take some food out of the barracks privately, after all, there is no restriction on eating and drinking in the barracks.

Seeing Li Li coming back from bringing food from the barracks, Li Zhiguo nagged him again and gave him some ideological education, and only then talked about the trivial matters in life and life in the barracks.

Li Li still only said that Li Zhiguo liked to listen to the old rules, which made Li Zhiguo feel very good, especially Li Zhiguo stared at the rank of second lieutenant on the military uniform from time to time (time was in a hurry, Li Li had not had time to change into a lieutenant uniform) and strongly encouraged Li Li to serve the fortress well, listen to the words of the commander, and cherish the hard-won career.

The last time passed slowly in the laughter of the family, and before I knew it, it was past five o'clock in the afternoon, Li Li got up to say goodbye, Li Zhiguo and Liu Qun tried their best to keep Li Li at home for dinner, as soon as he heard that Li Li and Gao Jun had an appointment, Li Zhiguo hurriedly told Li Li not to be late, thank you well, learn more from others, and do a good job in colleague relations, looking at Li Li nodded like a chicken, Li Zhiguo closed the door and returned to the house with confidence.

After the outbreak of the disaster, there were no private cars and taxis in Anshi for a long time, the gears on the war machine had been slowly running, unnecessary industries were closed, the time limit for opening was limited, the number of reductions was reduced, in short, everything was in the service of war, for the purpose of defeating monsters.

There was no means of transportation, Li Li had to throw the ham, fortunately, Anshi is not as huge as a first-tier city, and it takes a day or two to go around the city.
